Several years later, 1733, Charles Francais de Cisternay du Fay, a French scientist, determined that there were two kinds of electricity. He reports, "there are two kinds of electricity, one of which I call vit- reous and the other resinous elec- tricity. The first is that of glass, rock crystal, precious stones, hairs of ani- mals, wool and many other bodies. The second is that of amber, copal, gum-lac, silk, thread, paper, and a vast number of other substances. The characteristics of these tw
...o electricities are that they repel themselves and attract each other. " In 1742, Andreas Gordon, a Scotch Benedictine monk, employed a glass cylinder to generate static electricity, using a bow to turn it 1 742 A. D. At a speed of 680 revolutions a minute. He used electric charges to ring a bell and to run an electric whirl. Charges, concentrated on the points of the whirl, leak off and by reaction propel the wheel. The whirl acts like a rotary lawn sprinkler. In one case water reacts to propel the wheel, in the other case, electricity.
